Need help to set up Mount points to access ZFS pool from container

[Herkz]

Hi,

So here is my set up :

The pool "mypool" is purposed to be my storage for all my Nextcloud data and maybe Plex or other services requiring a lot of space.
The pool "rpool" is my system pool for Container / VM etc.

I want to set up Nextcloud in a container, running on "rpool" and using "mypool" to store data from Nextcloud.

In order to do that, I tried to bind "mypool" in the config file of the container by this way :

mp0: /mypool, mp=/mnt/data

But it doesn't work and block the container which make it impossible to start.

After I tried to bind the hard drive directly by:

mp0: /mnt/sdc ,mp=/mnt/data

Which issuing this error :

To do this, I used these links :

• https://www.jamescoyle.net/how-to/2019-proxmox-4-x-bind-mount-mount-storage-in-an-lxc-container
• https://192.168.1.37:8006/pve-docs/chapter-pct.html#pct_mount_points

If someone could explain me what I am doing wrong as I try to experiment as much as I can to learn.

Thank you all, I'm new to Proxmox and really happy to start my journey with you !

Best is to use what PVE offers you: Let it create the disk on the zpool mypool and you use that.
